Cool XMas background and logo, fits in nicely with the site

azezil · 10-12-2002 11:53am

yeah i like it too

Kali · 10-12-2002 11:53am

Could these not be tested using a Test Style-Set rather than during the day using the most popular one?
And they don't seem to work properly with in-between pages (your search is under way.. please wait while replying.. etc.) .. plus they're hella tacky

DapperGent · 10-12-2002 11:54am

Jebus it's cold outside and now I'm shivering looking at my computer screen.

Nicely done though.

Beruthiel · 10-12-2002 11:54am

very stylish and festive
gets one in da mood!

The_Bullman · 10-12-2002 11:55am

I also enjoyed it before I logged in and went back to my black goodness

Kali · 10-12-2002 11:57am

err as i mentioned in another thread.. tacky. makes it look like a kiddies santa fun site or a one that sells plastic angels 365 days a year that glow in the dark... think i'll be changing back to the black style pages.

DMC · 10-12-2002 11:58am

Now all I need to hear is The Fairytale of New York and then it is Christmas!

edit: Ooh, got to change the colour on the post confirmation screen. Black lettering on Dark Blue dont work!

Cloud · 10-12-2002 11:59am

I'm guessing you're not into the Christmas thing Kali! Sorry I had to bin your last post before all the cries of "what background" came out, but isn't it more fun to have live testing... Allow me to change your style for you.

Of course it is !!!

(until that live testing results in a "Regi says Ooops!" card, of course!)

Feck the begrudgers Cloud - it looks great

Kali · 10-12-2002 12:01pm

not quite, i just like a cleanlooking site... ive signatures & avatars turned off as well, makes the site look more professional when I'm in work

Kairo · 10-12-2002 12:02pm

I love you guys

Puck · 10-12-2002 12:32pm

I like it!

Change the colour on the login/post confirmation pages and keep it in the User CP options.

Cloud · 10-12-2002 12:45pm

Yeah the black text thing on blue is a sad side effect of having the background come right down as far as the table - will see what the best option here is... Edit - fixed that by editing the standardredirect template.

Stephen · 10-12-2002 12:51pm

I like it.

Bah Humbug !!!

(Guess what Christmas film my sig is from

)

Dazzer · 10-12-2002 2:06pm

The Grinch?

sceptre · 10-12-2002 2:24pm

Class film

"I can't get the antlers on to this guy - we tried crazy glue but it doesn't work"
"Have you tried staples?"

RicardoSmith · 10-12-2002 2:32pm

I like it. Nice to see we getting in the spirit of things!

Bard · 10-12-2002 2:36pm

The "I" of the Christmas BOARDS.IE logo reminds me of a pint of luvverly Guinness

Wolf · 10-12-2002 2:38pm

Well spotted Bard

Anyhow. "I like it...I like it alot!" Makes me feel festive....and horny :eek:

but whatever works for ya

Cloud · 10-12-2002 3:26pm

Well if you're looking for something to use in work, the Minimalist skin is a work in progress. I have some nicer colours on the way...

Kix · 10-12-2002 3:29pm

Wery wery nice

Having said that I liked they way Scrooge^H^H^H^H^H^H^H Kali was thinking. Could we have a plain as possible scheme for office browsing?

[edit]
Just a little example of Cloud reading my mind there ^

OSiriS · 10-12-2002 3:39pm

I reiterate the bah humbug!!! of a number of my outraged collegues. I consider it a disgrace that a management who proclaim such stances on equality and freedom of expression should discrimate so openly, and dare I say it, forceably against those of us without a christmas spirit!

regi · 10-12-2002 3:43pm

Me and Tom love it when Cloud 'skins up'

Dazzer · 10-12-2002 4:01pm

lol Dan

po0k · 10-12-2002 4:11pm

The backgroud itself is sweet, but the Black&Red boards.ie logo on the top left looks a bit off.
Try Red&Green?

Pld all the same. A nice surprise this morning

you arse licker scrooge. Moaney bastard. Maligning people for their hard work.

I will have no part of it. And I will not make complaints like you urge me to.

Kali · 10-12-2002 4:30pm

pah I hope the ghost of christmas present kicks you in the nuts Verb

leeroybrown · 10-12-2002 4:43pm

Scrooge^H^H^H^H^H^H^H Kali

"Scrooge^W Kali" would be far more efficient typing wise.

An office dossers skin would be nice tho. Not that the underpaid and underworked unemployed like me need it.

dahamsta · 10-12-2002 5:16pm

I think it's horrendously tacky and disgusting, but then I'm an old Christmas hating whore.

adam

Cloud · 10-12-2002 6:51pm

BTW the Minimalist skin has no avatars / signatures (no matter what your CP settings are).

mike65 · 10-12-2002 7:07pm

I thought it was flock wallpaper! Then the cent dropped....naff

Mike.

Dustaz · 10-12-2002 7:11pm

I like it

More of this sort of thing

Cloud · 10-12-2002 7:33pm

If you insist! Ho ho ho

kaimera · 10-12-2002 7:52pm

ooooo...

me likes minimalist! purple is a nice touch.

the background be somewhat darker tho..maybe I'm just too used to the Star Wars b/ground.

strat · 10-12-2002 8:03pm
